SUMMARY:Digital automation - signal sighting
DESCRIPTION:Overview\n  \nThis presentation examines the evolution of rail signal sighting\, a process that has traditionally been fraught with challenges\, through the lens of digital technology. We explore how digital tools have not only improved the accuracy of signal sighting but also made the process more accessible to a wider range of stakeholders. Rail signal sighting was once limited to 2D schematic drawings and physical site-based activities\, which presented a number of constraints. These constraints\, often caused by trackside equipment and underground services\, were not apparent in 2D documentation\, resulting in a delay in feedback between design and rail signal sighting committees. This disconnect often led to human error\, causing construction delays and requiring site rectification works. However\, UNITY Alliance has harnessed the power of structured data and automation to revolutionize this process. By deriving 3D model elements from 2D schematic drawings\, UNITY Alliance has enabled virtual signal sighting and clash detection with in-ground services and rolling stock dynamic kinematic envelopes in the project’s cloud-based coordination platform. \nLearning outcomes\n  \nPositive outcomes of implementing this new workflow process include: \nReal-time engineering coordination prior to construction with all stakeholders.\nClash analysis of physical assets and rollingstock envelopes during design and before construction – refer attached presentation for example.\nImprovement of accuracy and reliability of spatial 2D and 3D signalling information\, informed from a controlled data (using a master signalling equipment register spreadsheet).\nSafer approach for assessing signal sighting earlier by minimising the need of on track sighting inspections during design and construction. \n  \nEvent program\n  \n5:30 pm AEST: Welcome and Networking\n6:00 pm AEST: Presentation starts\n6:45 pm AEST: Q&A\n7:15 pm AEST: Close \n  \nSpeaker\n  \nMatt Quigley\, Principal Technical Officer\, AECOM \n  \nCost\n  \n$0 (members) $15 (non-members) \n  \nRegistration\n  \nFollow the link to the EA portal and click on Register >

SUMMARY:RTSA: The Future of Digital Railways - Future Railway Mobile Communication System (FRMCS)
DESCRIPTION:The RTSA and EA are delighted to host a one-of-kind sneak peek into the future of communications in the railways. This hybrid event (in-person and online) will be presented by Mr Rory R. McDonnell from Nokia\, who will discuss the technical systems underpinning automated train operation\, smart rail maintenance\, and 5G Rail. \n  \nThe event will be free for EA and Technical Society members attending online. There is a small cost for those attending in person\, with light refreshments provided\, and the opportunity to network with the speaker and other guests following the presentation. \n  \nPlease visit the link below for more information\, or to register and secure your place. \nEvent details\nDate: Thursday\, 16 May 2024 \nTime: 5.30 pm AWST – 6.30pm / 7.30pm – 8.30 pm AEST \nRegistration: EA:The Future of Digital Railways – Future Railway Mobile Communication System (FRMCS) \nCost: \nOnline \nEA and Technical Society members\, Student members: Free \nNon-members: $30.00 \n  \nIn-person \nEA and Technical Society members\, Student members: $10.00 \nNon-members: $40.00 \n  \nEvent Program\nWebinar \n5.30pm AWST/ 7:30pm AEST – Webinar starts \n6.30pm AWST/ 8:30pm AEST – Webinar concludes \n  \nIn-person \n5:00pm AWST – Registrations open \n5:30pm AWST – Event starts \n6:05pm AWST – Q&A\, followed by networking and light refreshments \n6:45pm AWST – Event closes
